Re: [orca-list] ot adding additional mountpoints after installation

[Pavel Vlček <vlcekpavel93 gmail com>]

Ok,

so I have 3 hdds in my laptop. Can I install Ubuntu somehow to use all 3 
hdds as 1?  have all 3 hdds 512 Gb, sda3 is ssd, sda2 and sda1 are 
classic hdds. So do I need to create raid or something similar to it? 
iMac uses fuse drive, it is one ssd and one hdd and it is used as one 
partition and it uses sometimes ssd, sometimes hdd.

Thanks,

Pavel
